What lovely people they are and what a great sense of humor!

Contessa just interviewed them on MSNBC.

4. They had the son and the parents on and they were talking about the responses they got

The parents were really enjoying the humor and the attention. Contessa told the son he should hug his parents right there, which he did. Then the dad reached out and got a hug from Contessa, who had him read the teleprompter for the tease on the next story. It was cute.

6. Kind of sad though.. a guy the age of their son, so desperate for attention

that he would do that silly thing on Craig's List.

Most guys his age have better things to do :)

2. I love OPs that tweet to a private little club.

Way to go to make everyone else feel completely out of the loop.

5. I probably have but it's worthwhile to try not to, I would think.

If you think whatever the hell you are talking about matters, well it should matter enough to give some background/context - enough to actually understand what is going on.

And if it doesn't matter enough to give some context, well maybe it doesn't matter at all.

That said I am in favor of free speech, so feel free to post whatever you like.

10. On the other hand,

Mark Sanford's been listed for sale for months with no takers. We'll probably have to pay somebody to take him!
